Time passed little by little.

The warriors who arrived at the door took turns in two shifts, but there was still no movement in the depths of the cave behind him. Ye Xi looked back anxiously from time to time, wishing to go inside to see how the rock was being excavated.

It's a pity that he is just an ordinary person, and a group of soldiers are digging in it, and one more reserve soldier of him can't help at all...

Yong Lun took a rest. He leaned against the wall, hammered his arm that was sore from excessive force, and said to Ye Xi, "The rock wall inside didn't come down so quickly. I know that rock wall is extremely hard."

Some clansmen opened the stopper of the water bladder and handed it to Yong. After Yong took it and took a few gulps, seeing the restless expressions on the faces of the clansmen, he comforted: "Our rock that blocks the door is not so brittle. , should be able to hold on for a while..."

Click.

As soon as the voice fell, a small crisp cracking sound came from the boulder.

Ye Xi and Yong froze and turned to look in disbelief.

A tiny, twisted crack appeared on the top of the boulder.

The clansmen present kept staring at the rock, and when the crack appeared, they all took a breath of cold air.

There was an imperceptible pause in Wu's chanting.

The chief, who was desperately trying to reach the door, didn't notice, the blue veins on their necks bulged, and all their mental energy was resisting the giant force, and the witch was still chanting, and there was no way to stop.

Ye Xi made a decisive decision and shouted: "Quick! All the resting warriors immediately went into the depths of the cave to help dig rocks. The warriors here will hold on during this period of time! Hurry up!"

The soldiers resting on the ground woke up like a dream, and jumped up from the ground in an instant, rushing into the depths of the cave without caring about their sore bodies.

Click!

There was a slight crisp sound, and another crack opened.

This time, even the soldiers who were desperately trying to reach the door noticed it, and looked up at the top of their heads in horror.

Ye Xi shouted, "Concentrate on holding on! Don't be distracted!"

Now there are no soldiers at the entrance of the cave except for the eight people who have arrived at the door. Once their minds are shaken and their energy slackened, the worm tide will break through the defense line and pour into the cave in an instant.

Click.

The crack spread from the top of the boulder to the middle.

Ye Xi stared at the crack and held the bow handle tightly, his palms sweaty.

The women hugged their children tightly, with sad expressions on their faces, staring at the cracks with frightened eyes.

The men held weapons and gritted their back molars, determined to fight to the death with the rushing bugs.

They didn't mean to run deep into the cave, because even running to the innermost point was useless, and the bugs would flood all the corners of the cave.

All eyes are on the crack.

Ye Xi held his breath, he put the bow and arrow back on his back, untied the three-edged army thorn hanging from his waist, and held it in his hand.

Maybe the next moment, the whole rock will be torn apart, and the endless giant insects outside will flood into the cave like a tide. The bow and arrow will definitely be useless, and the three-edged army may be able to resist.

There is no hope of survival under this kind of insect tide. If you can kill one before you die, you will pay for it.

The air froze, and apart from Wu's uninterrupted chanting, there was no other sound.

Putong, putong, in the extreme silence, Ye Xi seemed to hear the beating of his heartbeat one after another.

After ten breaths, the rock was motionless.

After twenty breaths, the rock was motionless.

After sixty breaths, the rock was still motionless.

In this suffocating and tense air, the frightening cracking sound did not sound again.

This gave Ye Xi another hope.

Maybe it's still too late...

At this moment, there were hurried and messy footsteps from behind!

Ye Xi's eyes lit up, and he looked back abruptly.

Click, click, click! ! !

At this moment, the rock burst out with a series of crackling sounds.

Ye Xi turned his head in disbelief and saw that the huge rock had cracked like a spider web at this moment!

The sound of rushing running came from behind!

"Quick--" Ye Xi roared back frantically!

"Ah-ah-"

"Ah-ah-ah-"

That ah sound kept echoing in the cave.

Click! ! !

The crack sound exploded again.

Putai and several other warriors blushed and carried a giant rock, rushing towards this side with staring eyes!

boom!

A loud bang came from behind.

Ye Xi looked back in despair.

The giant rock broke through a big hole in the middle, and a ferocious insect head was sticking out from the middle!

At this moment, the cracks on the huge rock can already be called cracks. Seeing that the huge rock is about to shatter in the next second, and the overwhelming insects outside will squeeze into the cave and level the Tushan tribe, the warriors carrying the huge rock behind them are only a few dozen meters away. the distance!

Ye Xi's face was ashen.

Unwilling, so unwilling! Why! Just a little bit! ! !

At this moment, Wu Zhongzhong leaned on his bone staff.

boom!

The bone rod fell to the ground, and the earth made a muffled sound.

Wu's eyes stared at the entrance of the cave, and the chant suddenly became very loud, harsh and sharp.

The worm that was twisting in the crack of the rock, seeing that it was about to burrow into the cave, froze and didn't move.

The soldiers who arrived at the door felt that the giant force outside suddenly disappeared.

"Step aside!!!"

The warriors behind them ran wildly, only a dozen steps away from the entrance of the cave, carrying the boulders and roaring in unison at the warriors who arrived at the door.

The soldiers who arrived at the door immediately retreated.

boom!

The soldiers joined forces to block the new rock.

Wu stopped chanting, stood there and took a few short breaths, his face turned a little gray.

When the chanting stopped, the worm tide attacked the hole again, and the old rocks outside were instantly smashed into several pieces.

When the old rock had just broken and the new rock had not yet embedded in the hole, the worms squeezed hard from the crevice.

The warriors joined forces and tried their best to push the new rock out.

Bang, the sound of rocks hitting the wall.

Finally blocked.

Ye Xi stared at the rock firmly blocking the entrance of the cave for a moment, heaved a sigh of relief, and then felt a little soft in his knees, so he sat down slowly against the mountain wall.

For a moment just now, he had given up hope, but he did not expect Wu Li to turn the tide and have the means to make the insects stop attacking.

Ye Xi turned to look at Wu.

Wu refused the food and water handed over by the clan, and was sitting on the ground with his eyes closed to rest.

All the clansmen are watching the witch like him, and their eyes are full of reverence and dependence from the heart.

After a short rest, Wu opened his eyes: "This rock can last for a day. I don't know when the worm tide will recede. The soldiers will rest for a while and then go to the depths of the cave to dig the rock."

"Yes, witch!" The soldiers said in unison.

All the clansmen looked at each other, their eyes filled with excitement and joy for the rest of their lives.

...

This despairing insect tide did not recede until three days and three nights. During these three days, the insects launched an offensive frantically. They were not like people and had to rest at night. When night fell, their offensive was even more fierce.

The warriors in Tushan were exhausted. If it wasn't for Wu's constant recitation of blessings to restore the warriors' physical strength, I believe they would not be able to last any longer.

In the past three days, the other ordinary people were not feeling well either, and the food stored by the tribe had been almost consumed during the previous refuge.

The warriors were physically exhausted when they arrived at the gate. The tribe could not make the warriors hungry, so all the food was given to them. The ordinary people had only water to drink except for children and the elderly who had a small amount of food.

Ye Xi refused the special treatment, and did not eat any food in the same three days and nights as the other clansmen.

If you don't eat for three days, you won't die of starvation, and once the warriors lose their strength, they're all dead.

During this period, Wu should be the hardest one.

Because the soldiers can still rest in shifts, but Wu has never rested.

In the past three days, Ye Xi has been looking at Wu's face worriedly, for fear that he will fall. But Wu actually held on to it abruptly, until the insect tide receded, Wu's body that had been standing upright, staggered and slumped to the ground.
